Chapter 97 Contradictions
What Qin Zhao meant by turning things around was originally to keep Heizi a secret, and even Su Shizi hoped that he would not mention it.Since Heizi made the promise without her reminding, she didn't need to mention it too much. Heizi is still so clever.

"Tell me about your affairs too? Aunt Shiba, Brother Ashu, and Ah Tie miss you very much. Unfortunately, it is not convenient for me to contact there now. Otherwise, write a letter, Aunt Shiba. If I knew you were doing well now, I would be so happy."

"I left Zhujiazhuang that year, and I came all the way to the capital. These years, I still follow the prince." It is common for descendants of the royal family to enter and leave the palace and attend gatherings of the royal family and nobles. In the future, they will always see the prince, and Heizi will no longer hide it. Brother Shu Minglang, the eldest son of the Chief Protector of Beiting Dufu Mansion. He was on his way to Beijing and went to Liangzhou on the way. Because it was a private visit and it was inconvenient to disclose his identity, he concealed it. Now that Ah Zhao is in Wangfu County Lord, I'm afraid we will meet with our family members often in the future."

In Qin Zhao's heart, however, she was overwhelmed by the news of the person she had always missed.

The eldest son of the Protectorate of Beiting, the elder son of the Geshu clan, just as Heizi said, has a very close relationship with her elder brother Qin Zhe.Her brother Qin Zhe is now the military governor of Beiting, and brother Shu Minglang and his father's subordinate.

His original name was Ge Shu Minglang.

Qin Zhao read his name lightly, and some strange, inexplicable feelings came to his heart, and he was stunned for a while, as if in a dream.

Then Heizi continued: "Although I am still a member of Shizi, but now I am not with Shizi..."

"What does that bookstore have to do with Ge Shuming... your son?"

Heizi was stunned, but he couldn't answer these words for a moment, he just stood there in a daze.

The person behind the bookstore is the eldest son, but this matter is extremely secret, Azhao just returned to Shangjing, how did she know?
"You...why would you ask such a question?"

Seeing the embarrassment on his face, Qin Zhao knew that, as he had expected, the bookshop was indeed related to Ge Shu Minglang, and it was inconvenient for others to know, otherwise, when she rushed into the shop that day, Ge Shu Minglang would not have been like that. I didn't know where to go, and I waited for a long time, but there was no one.

"I came back to this bookstore last time, and I saw your elder son by accident. Although I just glanced at the side face, but your elder son saved my life, so I was deeply impressed, and I can't remember it wrongly. But at that time I followed closely I went into the shop, but there was no trace of your son, and no one entered the store at that time, I was wrong, so I suspected that the shop had something to do with your son. It's just..."

It’s just that if it’s Shizi Su, it’s just a small bookstore. As the eldest son of Beiting, why does he open such a small bookstore, or maybe this bookstore is not opened by him, but why is he in the bookstore like this? Secret?

Thinking of this, Qin Zhao couldn't continue asking.

One is, that Shizi Su, no, since Shizi Geshu appeared in a place where he was unlikely to appear in the first place, and his whereabouts are secret, there is naturally something ulterior, and she really shouldn't ask.

Second, Qin Zhao thought that he was the eldest son of Beiting Duhufu.

This identity couldn't help but make her heart sink.

It must be known that Hu Geshu's clan, the capital of Beiting today, was originally a Western Turkic people. Even if they surrendered to the Kingdom of David, they are still aliens after all.As the eldest son of the Protectorate of the Northern Capital, but Heizi appeared in the capital, and Heizi said that she would definitely see her often at noble banquets in the future, so there can only be one explanation.

Brother Shu Minglang is the proton of a foreign king in Beijing.

He is a hostage.

This realization made her really unhappy.

No matter what the future holds, the fate of proton does not seem to be so wonderful.

To put it bluntly, he is the eldest son by name, but if Beiting Dufu has a different heart, then Geshu Minglang must be the abandoned son of the Geshu clan to appease David's court.Even if Bei Ting has the same intentions, his so-called heir is just a matter of face, and Ge Shu's family will definitely cultivate the successor of the family secretly, instead of betting all their hopes on Ge Shu Lang, who is in Beijing and can be used at any time. Abandoned proton body.

Even if he bears the identity of the prince.

If Beiting Protectorate Mansion can be safe and sound, even if Geshu Minglang is David's hostage, the abandoned son of Geshu's clan.After all, he can still live in peace and stability.And if Bei Ting had a different intention, and if the current chief guard didn't take this son seriously, I'm afraid Ge Shu Minglang would die in the future.

How could it be so easy to escape from Chang'an to Beiting?

Fortunately, her brother Qin Zhe is now serving as the envoy of the three armies in Beiting, and her elder brother Shu Dadu can let Qin Zhe, a son of Han nationality, take charge of the three armies of Yiwu in Beiting. .You see, I even handed over the army to you Han people, isn't that true enough?Your old son David, the emperor, wanted to take charge of the Beiting of my Geshu family from politics to the army, so I urged you to control the army. Are you really ashamed to kill them all, and even give our Geshu royal family some of the royal family that they should have? Pay back?
It's a pity that the chief guard of Geshu must have never expected that Shang Tianchang, who he entrusted with a heavy responsibility at the beginning and thought he was just a commoner, was in fact the most honorable royal son of the Kingdom of David.

future……

Qin Zhao sighed.

It's really not her thing to worry about national affairs.

"It turns out that Azhao has met our eldest son, but I hope Azhao can keep this matter a secret." Heizi begged.

In fact, how could Heizi ask, how could she easily tell outsiders about this kind of thing?Besides, now that she knows that Heizi's owner, Su Shizi, is the heir of Beiting Dufu Mansion, it is even more impossible for her to say, after all, Qin Zhe is the military governor of Beiting, and has some relationship with Ge Shu Minglang.And Qin Zhe sitting in that position is actually very sensitive.This involvement is definitely not something she can lightly talk about.

Qin Zhao nodded: "Of course I won't mention it to others."

After a pause, he said: "Grand Brother Shu and I have saved my life. If it is convenient, can Heizi pass me a message? I want...to thank him face to face."

That incident was actually an accident, and after all, many years had passed, and it was considered thank you back then. How could Ah Zhao propose to see the prince?Heizi was a little surprised.It’s just that he is used to obeying Qin Zhao. Although Qin Zhao made this request, although he felt it was unreasonable, he would not refuse it. He was just startled when he heard this, and then said: “I will mention it to the prince, it must not be difficult. But The envoy of Qin Jiedu is Ah Zhao's elder brother after all, and our son is the son of Beiting Dufu Mansion, I'm afraid it's..."

The relationship between this is indeed a bit subtle.

Qin Zhao sighed.It's not just a question of this delicate relationship.

Although Ge Shu Guilang saved her life, but she even concealed her own experience of living outside, so it is difficult to say this life-saving grace, otherwise, when someone asks, she can naturally make up a complete story Lies, but can she ask Ge Shu Minglang to lie with her too?

"Forget it. After all, we can meet again in the future, so let me thank you again."

Yes, we can meet each other in the future, but that kind of meeting is just a glimpse from the crowd.

He is the eldest son of the Geshu tribe.As a proton, he doesn't have that much freedom. Although there are important banquets, he will definitely attend, but with his status, how can he communicate freely?And I am one of the many noble girls in Chang'an City, so why should I associate with him?

However, they met each other but did not know each other, and the acquaintance was only a nodding acquaintance, this kind of meeting and acquaintance was not what she hoped for.

Seeing the deep disappointment on her face, Heizi didn't know why, so he wanted to make her wish come true, and said, "Azhao, I will mention it to the prince. If the prince agrees, it's okay to meet in private when the time comes. It's just that I don't know how to notify you when the time comes."

Really?Qin Zhaoxi said: "It's not difficult. I can come and go freely in the palace, and my elder brother left someone for me. The two horsemen just now are my guards. They only obey my orders. If I don't If you go out of the house and don't send them to do other things, they will usually stay in the outer courtyard. When the time comes, you can go to either of them. One of them is called Qin Lei and the other is called Qin Ming. Just write to me. I will tell them. Don’t worry, people can be trusted.”

Even though she knew that meeting Ge Shu Minglang was extremely inappropriate, but she had some hope and asked her to give up, but she couldn't do it.

Even when he saved her that year, she knew that maybe he just looked like the person in her dream, not the same person, but she still couldn't stop her desire to get close .

Just because, when he was in his arms back then, the warm and safe feeling was so similar to the person he used to be.

She used to think that the two of them were just a chance meeting in a sea of ​​people, and it was over after that, and there was no intersection, but she never thought about it, but there was still a chance to meet again.

The two talked for a while. Although Heizi didn't say it clearly, Qin Zhao could guess that Heizi was in the capital now. Because he was not with Shizi, no one even knew that he was from Ge Shu Minglang. He was responsible for some secret matters for Ge Shu Minglang.Therefore, Heizi's current situation is just a brief overview, and what they talked about the most was the things in Zhujiazhuang when they were young.

About half an hour later, Heizi was about to leave. Qin Zhao knew that he was in the bookstore, and he was afraid that he had something to do, so it was not easy to spare half an hour to talk to him, so naturally he didn't want to stay any longer, and told him again. He had something to look for himself, so he bid farewell to Heizi.

On the street, when the two parted, Heizi said in a low voice, "If Ah Zhao wants to find me, let the guy in the bookstore send me a message."

If it wasn't for absolute trust, Heizi would never say such a thing. She could tell that this bookstore might be an important place for Ge Shu Minglang, and judging from Ge Shu Minglang's secret last time, it couldn't be easily known Yes, and now, Heizi told her that if she contacted him, she could go through here, which meant that in Heizi's heart, she was someone she could absolutely trust. Qin Zhao felt warm and nodded.

"Heizi, thank you."

"Sister Ah Zhao," Heizi looked at Qin Zhao, showing a faint smile, his eyes were as bright as the little boy standing outside the firewood gate of her house, "this may be the last time I can call you that, I want to tell you, to you, Hei Zi will always be Hei Zi. To me, Ah Zhao will always be Ah Zhao."

But in this world, what is eternal?
